Leica M series User Manual 3
Function of the Microscopes
The Leica M125 B and Leica M165 C B micro-
scopes, for which this User Manual has been
written, are designed for routine examinations
of cell and tissue cultures, liquids, and sedi-
ments. This includes examining specimens
taken from the human body for the purpose
of gaining information about physiological or
pathological conditions or inborn anomalies, or
testing for safety and compatibility for poten-
tial recipients, or for monitoring therapeutic
measures.
IVD
The above-named microscopes comply with
the Council Directive 98/79/EC concerning in
vitro diagnostics.
•The manufacturer assumes no liabil-
ity for damage caused by, or any
risks arising from, using the microscope for
other purposes than those for which they are
intended or not using them within the speci-
fications of Leica Microsystems CMS GmbH.
In such cases, the Declaration of Conformity
shall be invalid.
•These (IVD) instruments are not
intended for use in the patient environ-
ment defined by DIN VDE 0100-710. Nor are
they designed to be combined with medical
Leica M125 B nameplate
instruments in accordance with EN 60601-1. If a
microscope is electrically connected to a medi-
cal instrument in accordance with 60601-1, the
requirements listed in EN 60601-1-1 shall apply.
Not suitable for examining potentially infec-
tious specimens. This type of instrument may
be operated by trained laboratory personnel
only.

modified, and we can offer other accesso-
ries for use in clean rooms.
★The cleaning of glass surfaces and objec-
tives in particular should be carried out
exclusively as outlined in the brochure
"Cleaning of Microscope Optics". The infor-
mation can be downloaded at:
http://www.leica-microsystems.com/prod-
ucts/
. Select your product and go to the "Down-
load" page.
★For additional information, refer to page
56.
Servicing

Safety Instructions
Description
★The individual modules fulfill the highest
requirements for observation and docu-
mentation of Leica stereomicroscopes of
the M series.
Intended use of instrument
★Leica Microsystems microscopes are opti-
cal instruments for improving the visibility
of objects or specimens through magnifi-
cation. Accessories such as optical acces-
sories, stands, illumination, cameras etc.
supplement the equipment configuration.
Non-intended use
★Using the instrument in any way contrary
to the specifications in the User Manual can
lead to bodily harm and damage to objects.
Never use microscopes for in vivo examina-
tions or eye surgery if they are not expressly
intended for such use. Never install any
other plug or unscrew optical systems
and mechanical parts unless expressly
instructed to do so in the instructions.
The instruments and accessories described in
this User Manual have been tested for safety and
potential hazards. The responsible Leica affiliate
must be consulted whenever the instrument is
altered, modified or used in conjunction with
non-Leica components that are outside of the
scope of this manual!
Unauthorized alterations to the instrument or
noncompliant use shall void all rights to any
warranty claims as well as product liability and
the Declaration of Conformity.
Place of use
★Only use the instruments in closed, dust
free rooms and between +10°C and
+40 °C. Protect the devices from oil, chemi-
cals and extreme humidity. If using the
devices outdoors, protect them from dust
and moisture. Never use electrical devices
outdoors.
★Electrical components must be placed at
least 10 cm away from the wall and away
from flammable substances.
★Avoid large temperature fluctuations,
direct sunlight and vibrations. These condi-
tions can distort micrographic images, for
example.
★In warm and warm-damp climatic zones,
the individual components require special
care in order to prevent the build-up of
fungus.

Safety Instructions (continued)
Responsibilities of person in charge of
instrument
★These Safety Instructions must be available
at the workplace.
Ensure that:
★The M series stereomicroscopes and
accessories are operated, maintained and
repaired by authorized and trained person-
nel only.
★All operators have read, understood and
observe this User Manual, and particularly
the safety regulations.
Repairs, service work
★Repairs may only be carried out by Leica
Microsystems-trained service technicians.
★Only original Leica Microsystems spare
parts may be used.
★Before opening the instruments, switch off
the power and unplug the power cable.
★Avoid contact with powered electrical
circuits, which can lead to injury.
Transport
★Use the original packaging for shipping or
transporting the individual modules of the
Leica M stereomicroscopy series and the
accessory components.
★In order to prevent damage from vibrations,
disassemble all moving parts that (accord-
ing to the user manual) can be assembled
and disassembled by the customer and
pack them separately.
Integration in third-party products
★When installing Leica products into third-
party products, the manufacturer of the
complete system or its dealer is responsible
for following all applicable safety instruc-
tions, laws and guidelines.
Disposal
★Once the product has reached the end of its
service life, please contact Leica Service or
Sales about disposal.
★Please observe and comply with the
national and federal laws and regulations
that are equivalent to EC directives such as
WEEE.
Like all electronic devices, the micro-
scope, its accessory components and
consumables must never be disposed of with
general household waste.

Safety Instructions (continued)
Legal regulations
★Observe the generally applicable statu-
tory and country-specific regulations for
accident prevention and environmental
protection.
EC Declaration of Conformity
★Electrically operated accessories are
constructed based on the state of the art
of technology and are provided with an EC
Declaration of Conformity. See page 55
Health risks
Workplaces with stereomicroscopes facilitate
and improve the viewing task, but they also
impose high demands on the eyes and holding
muscles of the user. Depending on the dura-
tion of uninterrupted work, asthenopia and
musculoskeletal problems may occur. For this
reason, appropriate measures for reduction of
the workload must be taken:
Optimal arrangement of workplace, work
assignments and work flow (changing tasks
frequently). Thorough training of the person-
nel, giving consideration to ergonomic and
organizational aspects.
The ergonomic design and construction of the
Leica M stereomicroscopy series are intended to
reduce the exertion of the user to a minimum.
Direct contact with eyepieces can be a potential
transmission path for bacterial and viral infec-
tions of the eye.
The risk can be kept to a minimum by using
personal eyepieces for each individual or
detachable eyecups.
Careful handling
★Exercise particular care when setting up
the instruments. If it is specified that two or
more people are required for setup, compli-
ance with this is mandatory.
★Never spill any liquids on electrical instru-
ments. This could cause the stereomicro-
scope and other equipment to become
electrically live and damage people and
instruments.
★Never clean instruments using corro-
sive cleaning agents or those containing
acetone. For detailed information about
care, refer to the User Manual for the instru-
ment.
★Check the power cables regularly. Defective
power cables can cause injuries.
★Wait for bulbs to cool off before changing
them. Touching hot bulbs can cause burns.
Leica M series User Manual 10
Safety Instructions (continued)
Light sources: safety regulations
★Light sources pose a potential risk from
glare. Therefore, lamps have to be operated
in closed housings and in installed condi-
tion.
★Never look directly into the beam path
(blinding hazard).
★Do not select a white, strongly reflective
background for the specimen.
